Picking up Girls With My System

They introduced themselves to Erlan, and he scanned each one of them. When his gaze stopped in Arthur’s, he felt a strange feeling of danger, but that couldn’t be possible.

A youth was in front of him, and he had spent years on the battlefield. How could that feeling come from that person?

He tossed that to the back of his mind and continued to explain how the test would work. Just like Giullis told them, they had to hunt a beast around Slyvian.

Erlan grabbed a few papers which contained a realistic drawing of the beast, as well as a description. Then, he put these papers facing down, and waved his hand, casting a minor wind to rearrange the papers.

“Now, each one of you will come here and choose one of these papers, and that would determine what beast you’ll be hunting.”

Arthur allowed them to go first, to choose their papers, and waited by the side. When he was on his turn, he noticed that there were more papers there than there were people.

Even after the other elves got their papers, there were still at least 7 papers there. Wasn’t it supposed to be one for each of them?

Without another option, he grabbed one paper, turned around, and saw the beast he had to hunt.

‘Lava Worm.’

Giullis saw the paper, and could not help but feel sad about his student. The Lava Worm was the strongest beast around the area, and even the generals couldn’t take it lightly. Why was that type of beast there? In all the other recruitments, nothing like that happened. All the others got weak beasts that were like their level of power.

They were concerned, but Arthur jumped with joy. With his Dragon Fire Body, he had a huge resistance to fire, which would be great when facing that beast. Also, he had an idea in his mind to eat the beast’s core, and try to absorb it to complete his sunlight essence.

Well, he called it sunlight because he mostly increased it using the sunlight energy, but it was more like a fire essence, and anything similar to it would work. But as he read more about the beast, he frowned.

Based on what the paper said, that beast was incredibly strong, and it was not something a trainee like him should face. Obviously, he was beyond that, and killing that beast wouldn’t be hard, but if he was truly just a trainee, then he would be dead.

He scanned at the other elves, who had smiling faces after witnessing his bad luck. Although it was not bad luck. The moment he looked at Kymil, he saw how he looked the other way, avoiding his gaze.

“So you asked your papa general to screw my entrance test. Don’t worry, I’ll eventually find a good excuse to kill you.” Arthur thought.

Giullis was also feeling something was off, but did not say a thing while they were all there.

“You’ll have 7 days to finish this. Meet me in here with proof.” Erlan said.

They all left the palace before that, and a guard scouted them out. Giullis stayed longer to talk with his brother, but the rest of them did not have the rights to stay in the palace for long.

All the elves returned to the inn. Giullis showed them to rest in their rooms. Arthur did not have that problem, so he went out and hunt that beast as quickly as possible.

“Aren’t you going to rest? I heard you’re facing a powerful beast.”
